Description

For those who've ever felt the weight of unanswered prayers or questioned their calling, this episode is for you. As a sister in faith, I want to inspire and motivate you to recognize that your dreams are not impossible with God.

I was praying about how to end the 2023 podcast season. It took a moment of pause and reflection to see I needed to share God’s hand over every minute of the last 12 months.

***Make sure to LISTEN for 5 scriptures you need for your goals in 2024.

I'm not one to boast, but I feel compelled to acknowledge how God carried me through 2023. Battling feelings of being too old or too late, I chose to turn away from the devil's lies and follow the path laid out by Jesus. With only an assistant working a few hours a week, a supportive husband, and an amazing best friend, it's truly been just me, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit navigating the journey.

✨  Looking Back on 2023 to See How God Was Always Working:

• Reached millions of people to share the hope of God, the grace of knowing Jesus Christ, and the power of walking in the Holy Spirit.

As I sat down to record this podcast, I had no script, but what emerged was a message of hope through my testimony. Now, I invite you to reflect on your own 2023. Grab a piece of paper, open a journal, or use your phone to jot down the moments when God's hand was evident in your life.

Faith Fuel for 2024

• May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope. Romans 15:13 (ESV)
• But they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint. Isaiah 40:31(ESV)
• Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1(ESV)
• Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer. Romans 12:12(ESV)
• Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful. Hebrews 10:23 (ESV) 

Remember, as we look back, let's dream again with hopeful expectations for what God will do with willing hearts and faith-filled belief.
